Riley Curry's NBA Presser Antics Make Her a Social Media Sensation

Riley Curry, daughter of NBA player Stephen Curry, stole the show again at a press conference Wednesday after her dad's Golden State Warriors beat the Houston Rockets in Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals to advance to the NBA Finals.

Riley’s fame, first conceived after Game 1's presser, is now cemented after she — among other things — napped, hid behind a curtain, played peek-a-boo, and sang Drake while on stage.

Stephen Curry, who was responsible for scoring 26 points for the Warriors, ultimately surrendered the spotlight after his daughter captured reporters' attention.

In her post-Game 1 initial appearance, Riley broke the ice by telling her dad to "be quiet."



Fans and admirers of both the Golden State Warriors and Riley took to Twitter with the hashtag #RileyCurry to show their appreciation for the little girl.

I love it that the biggest star of the 2015 NBA Playoffs is an adorable 2-year old. https://t.co/2U4hYdJRE2 #RileyWatch #RileyCurry
